When Jake and I got married, my grandmother "Mum Mum" said that she really wanted us to have a globe in our home, because a globe is just one of those things that every proper home should have. She got us this beautiful globe that has followed us from Boston to Atlanta to Tennessee. I could not understand at the time why it was that every home needed a globe, but I think I do now. The reason, I think, is that globes have some sort of magnetic attraction for children! I don't have my picture of baby Max spinning this globe in my computer (maybe if I get a scanner for x-mas . . . hint, hint:), but here's one of our little Cate, who, as soon as she could stand, wanted to touch the world and watch it spin in her hand.
